But with Sony Michel pledging to Georgia in late April, Cook is the highest-rated running back Miami is still pursuing. A backfield comprised of Duke Johnson, Cook and Yearby for at least one and possibly two seasons is a scary thought for 'Canes fans.

Ermon Lane, WR

He and Johnnie Dixon are the highest-rated receivers Golden is targeting, but Lane is better all-around than the speedy Dixon.

Lane, a 5-star from nearby Homestead High School, is coveted by many of the best programs around the nation including that national championship-dominating Alabama school.

While the Hurricanes are already stacked at the receiver position, Lane offers "State of Miami" talent. Plus, other than Cook, Lane is the highest-targeted non-committed skill position player by Golden.

Ten of the 15 247Sports' Crystal Ball contributors foresee Lane heading to Nick Saban and Alabama, but the other five members think Lane sticks around home in Coral Gables.

Due to multiple dismissals from the team, the Hurricanes are lacking depth at the linebacker position, and Golden is trying to change that. Miami received a commitment from 4-star LBJuwon Young over the weekend, and Smith could very well be the next linebacker to pledge to the 'Canes.

Lammons' profile shows offers from the likes of Alabama, Florida, Florida State, Ohio State, West Virginia and others, but Miami is a likely destination. All eight of 247Sports' Crystal Ball contributors believe Lammons will be a part of the 2014 Miami class.
